GALLERY: Ireland v Italy at the Six Nations in Dublin

A trip down an Ireland v Italy memory lane.

It's Ireland v Italy at the Aviva Stadium on Landsdowne Road this Saturday in the Six Nations. Ireland first played Italy in the Six Nations back in 2000 and we've beaten them every time they've come to Dublin.

Since 2000, we've beaten them at the old Landsdowne Road, Croke Park and of course, the Aviva. This gallery shows you some of the best shots of our battles against the Azzurri over the years. There have been one or two tight battles, but by and large, Ireland have been convincing winners.

It was also the fixture that the legendary Brian O'Driscoll played his last ever match for Ireland.

Let's hope we are not relying on a certain Mr Sexton having to do this again.
